Herring Pie
A somewhat rare Japanese-Western fusion baked sweet that encapsulates the history of Otaru. Otaru was once a prosperous port town where herring fishing flourished so much that grand mansions known as 'Herring Palaces' lined the streets. This 'Herring Pie' carries on the legacy of the era when silvery herring swarmed in from the sea. It features sweet-simmered herring (kanroni) wrapped in crispy pastry dough. The unexpected combination of Japanese-style sweet simmered fish and Western-style pastry harmonizes beautifully in a single confection. An unexpected deliciousness woven from the sweet and salty herring and the buttery aroma of the pie. This is a unique souvenir that tells a story, unique to Otaru, which once thrived on herring fishing.
